Every
major record label recording project goes through the process
of mastering. Even with the best recording engineers and the
most expensive studios, mastering adds a dimension of sound
quality that is essential for commercial success.
Mastering
is a second opinion. It is bringing your record to someone
you trust who can listen to it with fresh ears. Many recording
engineers develop long-standing relationships with mastering
engineers who they know they can count on to maximize the
potential of their recordings.
Mastering
is the difference between ending up with something that sounds
good but is ultimately flawed in some way (too muffled, to
bright, too boomy, too grainy, too splashy, etc.) and something
that sounds thoroughly professional (effortless, spacious,
balanced, detailed, powerful, dynamic, engaging).
How
much should I pay for mastering?
